CLAB with a computer
Via the provided USB cable CLAB can be
connected to a USB port of a PC or a MAC
computer and work as a lab interface.

CLAB with a computer
The Coach program running on the
computer controls CLAB. The
collected data are transferred to the
computer and the measurement can
be followed and analyzed on the
computer.

CLAB with CASIO Graphic Calculators
CLAB can be used with CASIO Graphic
Calculators on which the E-CON software is
installed, such as CASIO fx-CG Series,
fx-9860GII Series or ClassPad II (fx-CP400).
www.cma-science.nl
CLAB with CASIO Graphic Calculators
When connected to a calculator CLAB is controlled
by the E-CON software running on the calculator.
The collected data are transferred to the calculator
and the measurement can be followed and
analyzed on the calculator.
E-CON for ClassPad II and CG-20
*You can also create your own basic programs
to control C-Lab
www.cma-science.nl
E-Con 3
In the Main-Window you are able
to setup the C-Lab.
There is also an opportunity to
convert programs for older
Calculators and Interfaces.

w (LMEM) to save values as lists
The data is now copied into lists, and are accessible via the Statistic
app of the CG-20
www.cma-science.nl
Evaluation with Spreadsheet
After export as lists (LMEM) you also have the possibility to
import lists in the „Spreadsheet“-App of the CG-20.
